Assignor may participate in and observe the proceedings at its own cost and expense with counsel of its own choosing. The costs, fees and expenses incurred by each Indemnified Party in the investigation or defense of any claim hereunder shall be made by periodic payments by Assignee of the amount thereof during the course of the investigation or defense, as and when bills are received or are incurred.
